“With the blessing and assistance of API and the hard work of our top-notch DSP team, we’re proud to be releasing industry-leading emulations of the API 550A and 560 EQs,” says CEO and founder Bill Putnam, Jr. “We’re thrilled to be adding the iconic API sound to the UAD powered plug-ins platform.”

“We are very pleased to see the development of API plug-ins for the UAD platform,” adds Larry Droppa, API president. “The sonic integrity and audio performance of API products has always been our primary focus, and UA has demonstrated a proven track record with these same goals. We look forward to much success with this EQ collection and other API introductions to come.”

Available as part of an upcoming UAD software release scheduled for February 2013, the API 500 Series EQ Collection will be available for $299 (U.S.) via UA’s online store, located here.
